CES 2016: Alcatel OneTouch to debut Windows 10 tablet

It’s not a secret that Alcatel OneTouch’s main focus has been Android phones. But they seem to want to give Windows a chance with a new Windows 10 Mobile tablet. Called the PIXI 3, it’ll be the brand’s first Windows device. The PIXI 3 will be coming to CES and what we know so far is it’s an 8-inch device that will have GPS, a TV remote control, and voice call support. It’ll have a Qualcomm chipset to support 4G connectivity. This will carry an “entry level” design, which means it won’t cost you much to own one of these. No word at the moment about price and when or where it will ship.
